Selecting seats on Finnair reward booking

[Salar]

I've booked a Finnair flight with QF points. How do I go about seat selection? Thanks

 

[Aeryn]

Go to the Finnair website and use manage booking

Thanks, I tried that but wouldn’t accept QF PNR

Ask if their is a AY PNR.
Sometimes can be seen on QF manage booking.

This should work: Online Booking - Royal Jordanian

Those old hacks generally do not work anymore unfortunately.

All the OW airlines have locked down their MMB pages to only their flights or bookings with at least one flight on their metal.

QF PNR usually works on AY provided there is an AY flight.

Are you sure its ticketed? Usually need to enter APIS for the ticket to be issued.

Finn Air will normally accept the QF PNR, did you just make the booking. IME it is only after it has been ticketed in the AY systems can you select select seats, some times this can take a day or so. This is what I see for seat selection for one of our bookings on AY (manage my booking) made with QF points and using the QF PNR.

Just checked Manage My Booking pages on Royal Jordanian, Malaysian, SriLankan and Cathay Pacific websites with my upcoming QF booking. All worked fine. As others have suggested if this is a recent booking then details may not be available yet to other airlines.

Mainly for the US to get the ticket issued. In my example above APIS details within AY for that booking are still outstanding.

@Salar IME experience when booking with QF partners be it OW or others your booking will normally show up in the carriers system within minutes as 'confirmed'. It is not until the booking is ticketed in the carrier system can you select seat, put in meal details/ request etc.

Edit, if you made the booking say 48 hours ago I would suggest calling QF to confirm everything is ok with the booking.

Minimum DoB is usually required for all international bookings to ticket.

Either way, can never hurt checking that.

How many days have elapsed since the ticket was issued?

I booked AY recently as a reward and I was able to enter my QF PNR within minutes of the booking.

Same with me!

Interestingly ‘preferred’ seats in business were available free of charge (those that would normally attract an additional fee)
